future that precious light of freedom. traditionally it is a speech that sets the tone for the future... low looks like we're back at the d.c. convention center and a little problem with the microphone. it is stevie wonder... >> we have lost the signal but there is a lot going on already michelle obama and the president have done their debts. we will show you all of that a little bit later the party going strong right here in the president's own backyard. live on the south

side at the inauguration bash. these folks and didn't make the trip down to washington d.c. but they are having a ball right here in chicago celebrating their home town president as he begins his second term. it is a party at the grand ballroom at 63 and cottage grove. the radio station organized it and the one thing that everybody has in common here is pride. they spend most of the day with their eyes glued to the tv watching president obama second inauguration maybe even more special because it's martin
9:04 pm
luther king day grateful and hopeful about the president's second term jobs, immigration reform, protecting in title it. for now it's all about the celebration. it is painfully cold outside but very hot in here tonight's inaugural party
9:05 pm
followed by pageantry the tradition of inauguration day.
9:06 pm
choirs sang as a list politicians present and past filled the capital platform people like former president jimmy carter and bill clinton for those with a front row seat it was elbow to elbow on a chilly day the massive crowd quickly warmed the scene close to 800,000 may be 1 million this year compared to 1.8 million people in 2009. so what was mrs. obama going to wear? she didn't disappoint in a navy code in dress by an up-and-coming men's designer joined by their daughters together they sang, they listen to and prayed as vice president joe biden and then president barack obama took their oaths to serve the nation
9:07 pm
for four more years if flawless performance except for one minor flub, his speech lasted 19 minutes into covered everything from equal rights to economic recovery climate change to the message of martin luther king jr. on a day that the nation celebrates the birth of the civil-rights leader. >> tahir a preacher say we cannot walk alone the challenges ahead are enormous and the president admitted that his work would be imperfect. we must act that knowing that today's victories will be only partial grammy winner kelly clarkson giving the ceremony in central hollywood. followed by the
9:08 pm
friend of the president beyonce with her rendition of the national anthem a performance to remember. it all ended with a 21 gun salute before special guests attended a formal luncheon where the president and first lady had lobster, bison and apple pie before they took to the parade route in washington thousands of well-wishers lined the streets screamed and hollered into a magic moment when they got a glimpse of the president and mrs. obama along pennsylvania avenue the first couple had rock star status. hand-in-hand to the crowd went wild. one of the more emotional moments of the day action likely when president obama was just leaving the capital take a look he stopped and he turned around for one last look at the sea of people filling the national mall today.
9:09 pm
he soaked it all in one last time he wanted one last look because he said i will never see this again. even he impressed with the all of that moment. her boots were made especially just for her one-of-a-kind. join us right now to break down the president's speech with paul lisnek the host of politics tonight is this what he has wanted to say for the last four years? >> it may very well paid. there was some question certainly from liberal progressives where was this guy for the first four years of his term he is not
9:10 pm
running again there was no reason he couldn't say everything that was on his mind. and historic comments today as we know that have never been said before in an inaugural address. it's not complete until our wives and mothers and daughters can earn a living equal to their efforts. our journey is not complete until our gay brothers and sisters are treated like anyone else under the law. for if we are truly created equal then surely the love we commit to one another must be equal as well. politics aside for a moment sometimes you hear the list women gay lesbians it's almost like a checklist but not at the inaugural podium or the address not as one that will be studied in history for time that was a momentous occasion agree or
9:11 pm
disagree with the politics the president established new ground. is he stepped into far into the future right now? he was a little bit more specific than i expected him to be. is he trying to buy off a lot more maybe he is truly trying to buy off a lot but this is his legacy term this is where the legacy comes from so you will see him speak up in the coming four years on all of these things something i said earlier during our coverage the real strength of his term will actually be in the presidential... it will be
9:12 pm
interesting to watch what unfolds and what happens in the future. i think he used to that platform to get the word out. so many connections between this president and abraham lincoln this is a president who understands history he understands there has been a lot of discussion we have seen in so many. nixon, nothing more needs
9:13 pm
to be said he says i know what i've read it i get the history it's not going to happen to me we will see whether it does but the good news for him is his personal popularity rating is so high that he should be able to withstand even some small... we will see this as a president that is in the face of history and we are living it. he may very well be talking about today at the museum of african- american history more than one parent was explaining what the inauguration means to their children. they definitely have an opportunity to let their dreams come to life. >> they watch today's ceremony on the big screen the museum
9:14 pm
also marks the 150th anniversary of the emancipation proclamation and as we said martin luther king day. what lies ahead for the president how it compares to other to timers. timers2other 2 timers. this is quite a cold spell the coldest in two years we are listening to beyonce saying the national anthem from the inauguration tonight.
9:15 pm
mmm. it's delicious! another angry-satisfied customer. you don't need toppings! and that is why we're fixing this. hey earth! stop topping triscuit! [ male announcer ] 100% whole grain woven for an untoppable taste.

[ male announcer ] one pill each morning. 24 hours. zero heartburn.
9:18 pm
we the people declared today that the most evident of troops that all of us are created equal. it's the star that guides us still part of president barack obama second inaugural address so what should we expect from his second term? we are here to talk about some of the ambitious goals and the results that usually occur. really there are only 18 months until the late dr. basically you were going to see obama introduced the four cabinet members today you can expect bills related to gun control and immigration and then the fight over the deficit all of them will start rolling out even before the state of the union address. you heard the
9:19 pm
speech seven times together not so much together is this problem with the house republicans have control but the thing that the president has going is that for him to build a base of support he has put together a political organization you noticed particularly in the fight over the last few months of the fiscal cliff how he was able to appeal to the business community to all of the group's the congressmen have to answer to constituents both their contributors and their voters so it is possible usually you run into a problem the lewinsky problem some sort of crisis comes along that derails you so it really is going to be a sort of world wind and the next few months because that is when you get the momentum. you look back
9:20 pm
in history we have reagan who builtdealt with the iranian conflict how you keep from being derailed? you have to get the boats quickly while you still have the momentum the president is two or three times as popular as congress at the moment so she can use all of that but it's still very difficult to push ahead, you build a coalition and sometimes things do come later president kennedy who had only part of one term laid out an agenda he didn't accomplish most of it it took lyndon johnson to actually make that into law later. it is a tough road but is a good positive strong start this second inaugural address is never as important as a looks. it's still a good step and a
9:21 pm
solid step i think you'll see a solid presidency second term personal exhaustion. i think at the moment coming off of the election coming off of the inauguration you will see a lot of energy in the white house for the next few months it becomes sort of a drive towards the last minute lame-duck no one in congress at least is paying a lot of attention to any more. by the end of the second term his hair is going to look like marks' probably. his hair was all black when he took office in its nearly all gray now. still ahead an all-star evening who is showing up tonight including the big one hosted by rahm emanuel. a solid gold treatment for cancer how the metal that makes

>> wait until you see some of these temperatures but we expect this this time of year a pilot was flying at 4,000 ft. over watertown you think it's cold down there on the ground this afternoon look at that temperature that is 15 below zero at 4,000 ft. so that is something jennifer of ex said it snowed here last night and it did through the southern suburbs there is snow on the ground we have these beautiful cumulus clouds out on
9:31 pm
fox valley yesterday a lot of folks noticed that we had a number of shocks like that decade and to us today we all appreciate your incredible pictures it was a gorgeous day but it was cold the highest temperature today clouds innocuous from our shoreline have produced some healthy snows on the other side of the lake is chilly tonight temperature readings are on the way down to know we are 19 hours in a 54 hour stretch of subzero wind chills we went below zero on the wind chill at 2:00 a.m. this morning don't expect to recover from above 0 on the wind chill until wednesday morning let's go to our computer we will show you that right here this is the
9:32 pm
coldest weather in two years in chicago we have certainly had worse in january but we are marveling at the fact that we are getting down to sub 0 level temperatures despite the lack of snow cover. you can see the lake effect snow warnings on the other side of the lake the arctic opened up with a siberian express pattern just as expected bitterly cold air mass took up residence at canada last week has now spilled into the lower 48 the reason that is happening is because warm air running up the west end of the continent towards alaska sens the jet stream buckles and northward to it joined sajak coming across the north pole from russia and siberia and the two of them roared down at over 100 mi. per hour to bring the cold air in that will moderate
9:33 pm
the temperatures later in the weekend and will also bring the chance for snow look at the wind chill temperatures at this moment our model is forecasting wind chills as much as 48 below zero by morning by international falls and 12-16 below zero here in chicago these are thermometer readings up close. seven at o'hare. that wind is whipping through the area. it feels like 12 below at o'hare. fortunately the ground is bear it feels like 18 below but the thermometer is already down to - one we have
9:34 pm
about 180 studies across the region and every one of them tonight is the single digits or lower not a big deal but the one on friday afternoon says the best chance of putting several inches of snow down so we will be watching that you can see the school they're hitting the warm whitewater's is sending snow into michigan here is the latest raid our view of that. we will come back and show you some numbers on how much snow we may have over the next 10 days around here some interesting numbers off of our models in a year that has just not seen much maybe we will add a little
9:35 pm
bit to this partly cloudy tonight bitterly cold snow is not the issue but the wind chill is at 15-25 below it looks now like we could get down to two degrees below zero scattered clouds very cold tomorrow night. increasing cloudiness wednesday flurries in the afternoon high temperature of about 21 maybe a snow shower wednesday night and another one thursday afternoon or night it's looking like it's going to be pretty wintery this week. we
9:36 pm
have been lucky by the mild temperatures. sean lewis is at the lake front where the wind chill feels like it is below zero. very well below zero. at least seven people have died in cook county this winter alone because of the cold that no. unfortunately is likely to go up because of this latest cold spell. as the sun went down in chicago tonight so did the already cold temperatures. along michigan avenue just a few people braved the cold some dove into a cab to escape the coldest temperatures in two years on the city's north side subzero wind chills did not freeze out the appetites of the briskly faithful bubbled up waiting for a bite of what was waiting inside some people go to mecca
9:37 pm
i go to hot tub. we always worry about frostbite hypothermia emergency room doctors say if you need to go out watch for signs of hypothermia like confusion and frostbite including tingling of the ears and nose in fingers. these areas that protrude out like your nose and ears are the ones that are susceptible to freezing so you really want to be careful of that and on this holiday the city opened one west side center 95 people sought refuge here the city hoped to keep every person save especially children and teenagers. a quick trip to the store with his kids this afternoon is a lot more preparation. make sure they're
9:38 pm
able to walk out here a little bit comfortable. make sure they're nice and warm. it pays to remind everyone, remember to check on the elderly and especially your neighbors in this cold make sure that they're ok if you know someone who needs a warm place to stay or need some help insure to call 311. coming up, it sounds high tech and it is a way to treat cancer one very very small doses at a time we're live at the inaugural ball tonight. the music we're listening to now is kelly clarkson.
9:39 pm
whoa! nobody insures more bikes than progressive. do you guys ride? well... no. sometimes, yeah. yes. well, if you know anybody else who also rides send them here -- we got great coverage. it's not like bikers love their bikes more than life itself. i doubt anyone will even notice. leading the pack in motorcycle insurance. now, that's progressive. call or click today. aarrggh!
